We live up in Shasta lake.

From my experience working with over 400 investors, consider alternative strategies like rent-by-the-room, buying an SFH with an ADU, or renting where you live while investing elsewhere.

We were there looking for another property that we could buy together on the beach that we could rent out as a short-term vacation rental.We we're living it up and having a fantastic time zip lining, eating delicious food, and seeing the monkeys in the wild.it seems like from the moment I returned from that trip in August 2022 the real estate market completely changed.

One unvetted thought I’ve had for when I go live is to give VRBO a 1-2 week head start on our listing.

The lot works and ok with living in one unit, just trying to find people that have executed them in Los Angeles City.

I currently live in the Bay Area, but I’ve decided to start investing in the Jackson County/MO area.

Considering that, you are likely going to see appreciation year over year, which essentially will be additional equity you'd capture just by simply living in the home. 

For example, we cannot find a good deal in Houston on the MLS to save our lives, but in San Antonio there are a bunch. 

And lived in it for at least 2 out of the 5 years prior to selling. 

When I tried to get it when my side of the family found out and tried ti take over reverser mortgage payments to bank because she had died it was to late so they sold the house to Hud and then other reverse mortgage companies but a relative still lives there so they can't kick them out.
